'Bad poll': Trump says survey showing him losing to Biden by 4 really means he's up by 6

Former President Donald Trump on Monday reacted with anger to a poll from Quinnipiac that shows him losing the 2024 election to President Joe Biden.

Writing on his Truth Social platform, the former president attacked Fox News for highlighting the poll, which he said was a wildly inaccurate snapshot of the current state of the 2024 race.

"The Quinnipiac Poll FoxNews keeps showing on 'TRUMP' vs. Biden is not just an old Poll, it is a BAD Poll," he charged. "It under samples Republicans by 10 points, which means, instead of being down 4 points, I am up 6 points. Other Polls show me much higher than that, but FoxNews will always attempt, as they did in 2016, to only show negatives on MAGA & TRUMP. We’re winning BIG, they don’t like it, the RINOS don’t like it, the Democrats don’t like it but, most of all, the Marxists & Communists don’t like it!"

In claiming that the poll is under-sampling Republicans, the former president is employing the same tactics used in 2012 when some conservatives "unskewed" polls they thought sampled too many Democrats to claim that Mitt Romney was actually defeating former President Barack Obama.

The final election results showed that, if anything, the polls underestimated Obama's support.
